Some are familiar mer-people; some as strange as as a golden eye in a pool at the edge of the Great Desert Kalarsham, where the mad god Geljdreth rules; or the unknowable, immense Kraken, dark beyond the darkness of the deepest ocean, who will one day rise and rule the world. 1 Prologue: The water sprite / Robin mcKinley and Peter Dickinson 2 Mermaid song / Peter Dickinson -- 3 The sea-king's son / Robin McKinley -- 4 Sea serpent / Peter Dickinson -- 5 Water horse / Robin McKinley -- 6 Kraken / Peter Dickinson -- 7 A pool in the desert / Robin McKinley.
